Top-down fabrication of α-Fe2O3 single-crystal nanodiscs and microparticles with tunable porosity for largely improved lithium storage properties

In this work, we report a facile top-down approach to fabricate uniform single-crystal α-Fe2O3 nanodiscs via selective oxalic acid etching. Phosphate ions are employed as a capping agent to control the etching to along the [001] direction. We also show that α-Fe2O3 melon-like microparticles with con...
